Tegg's Nose Fell Race - Saturday 8th August, 1pm

Postby Simon » Tue Jul 14, 2015 11:57 pm

Only a very few short weeks away now and I was wondering who would like to help with this....?

Please throw hats into the ring, and I shall suggest places and responsibilities for all-comers.

This year, I thought the proceeds could go to MIND, the mental health charity.

For a successful race, we need about 15 altruistic folk... a proportion of which I have in mind, but please express your interest below and join the fun.

This year, we don't clash with the legendary Borrowdale Fell Race (I am sure they are relieved that we are not stealing their thunder :wink: ), so there might be a turnout in the hundreds.

Thanks in anticipation....

Hi Simon,

Sorry, we won't be able to help this year. Hope all goes well and the farmers are cooperative!

No worries Nancy... there's still plenty of time for volunteers, and it usually works out. Is anyone else EXCEL literate and can slick-up the results?

It worked a treat last year... :D

Usual drill for setting out the course OK?

Meet at the top of Broadcar Road at 18.30 (19.00 if you prefer) and have a pleasant walk marking the route, ending in the Dunny?

Heather would also like to assist as a marshal or as required. I was hoping to take part in the race.

Hazel, that's fine... see you soon.

Pimmy, can I have Heather's number so I can add her to the marshalling plan?

The intention is that we all know each other's numbers for safety's sake.

You can text me with it perhaps?

Thanks very much.
